1
Speed in a specified
direction.
2
A flat line on this type of
graph means stationary.
3
Measured in m/s/s
(m/s2) or (ms-2).
4
Change in velocity
Time taken
5
‘Amount of stuff’, this remains
constant even if you’re on the
moon!
6
The size difference between 2
opposite forces. This determines
any changes in movement.
7
The size of a resultant force
required to produce no change
in movement.
8
The maximum speed an object
can reach. This can be changed
by producing a non-zero
resultant force (often by
increasing / reducing the
resistance).
9
This is affected by:
Your speed
Tiredness, distractions, poor
visibility, alcohol, carelessness,
drugs, answering your phone etc.
10
The higher you are, the more
you have.
Mass x gravity x height
11
The faster you go, the more you
have.
½ x mass x velocity2
12
Kids Hate Learning GCSE
Energy Names.
13
Energy cannot be created or
destroyed, only transferred into
other types.
14
The extension of an elastic
object in relation to the force
applied (until the elastic limit of
proportionality is reached).
15
Also known as Energy
Transferred.
Measured in J or Nm
16
Momentum before compared
with momentum after.
17
Opposite charges _______.
18
Voltmeters are connected like
this so they can measure the
difference in energy across a
component.
19
This has a constant current,
wherever it is measured.
20
The average time for the
number of nuclei in a
radioactive sample to halve .
Velocity
Speed in a specified
direction.
Velocity

25
Resultant force
The size difference between 2
opposite forces. This determines
any changes in movement.
Resultant force
26
Zero
The size of a resultant force
required to produce no change
in movement.
Zero
27
Terminal Velocity
The maximum speed an object
can reach. This can be changed
by producing a non-zero resultant
force (often by increasing /
reducing the resistance).
Terminal velocity
28
Thinking distance
This is affected by:
Your speed
Tiredness, distractions, poor
visibility, alcohol, carelessness,
drugs, answering your phone etc.
Thinking distance
29
Gravitational potential energy
The higher you are, the more
you have.
Mass x gravity x height
Gravitational potential energy
30
Kinetic energy
The faster you go, the more you
have.
½ x mass x velocity2
Kinetic energy

Law of conservation of energy
Energy cannot be created or
destroyed, only transferred into
other types.
Law of conservation of energy
33
Directly proportional
The extension of an elastic
object in relation to the force
applied (until the elastic limit of
proportionality is reached).
